Cordero's Forced Bride

Alexa opened the large door to the elegant cathedral of Santa Mar a de la Sede with a heavy feeling. Her sister was to be married today, and she has to call it off at the last minute and tell everyone that her sister changed her mind. Surprisingly the handsomely chiseled groom, Santos, starts to laugh out loud instead of becoming angry or sad. For Santos, the purpose of this marriage is to connect to the higher class...it's a marriage of business, not love. Still, he doesn't want to waste all the preparations that went into the weddingSo he firmly takes Alexa by her soft shoulder and says, "You're coming with me."
